More flues, more appliances

Why Port Chester chimneys are their own kind of job

A lot of Port Chester is two- and three-family houses and older brick buildings. That usually means one chimney stack carrying several flues — a boiler here, a water heater there, sometimes a fireplace nobody has used in years — each serving a different unit. Work on these is mostly about finding out what every flue is actually connected to.

Several units venting into one stack, with no record of which flue serves which appliance
Oil-to-gas conversions sharing old clay-lined flues that were never relined
Water heaters and boilers condensing inside masonry and eating the mortar from inside
Crowns and caps worn out on taller stacks that nobody can see from the street
Landlords and buyers needing a written inspection before a sale or a new tenant

What we do

Chimney services in Port Chester, NY

Every job starts with a camera and ends with photographs. Anything beyond the agreed scope gets quoted before it happens.

Chimney Sweeping

Soot, creosote and debris cleared from the flue and smoke chamber, with a HEPA vacuum running so nothing ends up in the room. Before-and-after photos of every flue we clean.

Chimney Inspections

Camera inspections of every flue in the stack, with a written report and photos. Level 2 inspections for sales, refinancing, new appliances or a change of tenant.

Learn more

Chimney Liners

Stainless steel liners sized to each boiler or water heater. The standard fix when gas appliances vent into an unlined or cracked clay flue — very common in multi-family houses.

Learn more

Masonry & Crown Repair

Repointing, brick replacement and crown rebuilds in proper mortar. We photograph the top of the stack so you can see the damage, even on chimneys you can’t see from the ground.

Learn more

Caps & Waterproofing

Stainless caps for single or multi-flue stacks, and a breathable water repellent on the brick. Keeps rain, leaves and animals out of every flue.

Learn more

Dryer Vent Cleaning

Full-length lint removal and airflow testing, including the long vent runs common in apartments and multi-family buildings.

Questions we get every week

Straight answers

Our house has three units. Do you inspect all the flues?

Yes. In multi-family houses one stack often carries several flues for different apartments and appliances. We check every one and tell you what each serves, because the flue nobody thinks about is often the one with the problem.

Do we need a liner for our gas boiler or water heater?

Often, yes. Modern gas appliances vent cooler, wetter exhaust than the oil systems most older chimneys were built for. That moisture breaks down clay tiles and mortar from the inside. A stainless liner sized to the appliance is the usual fix.

Can you do an inspection for a sale or a new tenant?

Yes. A Level 2 inspection — a camera run up every flue plus a check of the accessible parts of the chimney — with a written report and photos you can give to your attorney, inspector or insurer.

Do you work in Greenwich and Byram?

Yes. We cover the Connecticut side of the Byram River — Byram, Greenwich, Cos Cob and Old Greenwich — as well as Port Chester, Rye Brook, Rye, Harrison, Purchase, Mamaroneck and White Plains.

How often should a chimney be swept?

NFPA 211 calls for a yearly inspection, with sweeping when the inspection shows it’s needed. Wood-burning fireplaces used through the winter usually need a sweep every year. Gas-only flues still need the yearly check for blockages and moisture damage.

Will you make a mess?

No. Drop cloths go down, the fireplace or appliance opening is sealed and a HEPA vacuum runs throughout. Clean-up is part of the job.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the building. A single fireplace and a three-flue stack serving three apartments are very different jobs, so we quote after seeing it. The quote comes before the work and doesn’t change afterwards.
